Attachment Styles, ADHD, and Why We Love Too Much (Then Run)

This week we're diving deep into attachment theory β€” anxious, avoidant, disorganised, and everything in between β€” and how ADHD makes it all so much more intense. We get brutally honest about our own most "unhinged" moments in relationships (hello, retroactive jealousy πŸ‘€), the fear of rejection that shapes how we love, and why chasing "secure" love can feel scarier than the chaos we're used to. We talk childhood roots, why your attachment style isn't a life sentence, and the one relationship that matters more than any romantic one: the one with yourself. If you've ever wondered "why do I do this in relationships?" β€” this episode is for you. In this episode: Anxious vs. avoidant vs. disorganised attachment Our most unhinged relationship moments (we're not proud, but we're honest) How ADHD intensifies attachment wounds Retroactive jealousy and where it comes from Learning to accept secure love when you're not used to it Why healing starts with your relationship with yourself Grab a glass of wine and settle in β€” this one's a vulnerable one.

This week we're diving deep into attachment theory β€” anxious, avoidant, disorganised, and everything in between β€” and how ADHD makes it all so much more intense.

We get brutally honest about our own most "unhinged" moments in relationships (hello, retroactive jealousy πŸ‘€), the fear of rejection that shapes how we love, and why chasing "secure" love can feel scarier than the chaos we're used to.

We talk childhood roots, why your attachment style isn't a life sentence, and the one relationship that matters more than any romantic one: the one with yourself.

If you've ever wondered "why do I do this in relationships?" β€” this episode is for you.

In this episode:

  • Anxious vs. avoidant vs. disorganised attachment
  • Our most unhinged relationship moments (we're not proud, but we're honest)
  • How ADHD intensifies attachment wounds
  • Retroactive jealousy and where it comes from
  • Learning to accept secure love when you're not used to it
  • Why healing starts with your relationship with yourself


Grab a glass of wine and settle in β€” this one's a vulnerable one.
